[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ours is about 15 kids. The classrooms are fairly large though. So long as there's a large[b] rug to accommodate circle time[/b], and an area with tables for lunch and activities, I would think there's enough space. With a class that size, they usually split the kids into smaller groups, so some will be doing independent play on the mat, while others are doing a crafts project at the tables.[/quote]

Circle time for a 1 year old?  RUN as fast as you can from that daycare. [/quote]

You don't sing songs and tell stories to your one-year old? Wow.[/quote]

That's what you took from my comment?

Circle time for 1 year olds is not developmentally appropriate.  1 year olds should be crawling around, toddling, exploring not forced to sit in a group to listen to an adult blather to them. WHEN I start to read and sing they are free to come and go, join us or explore. There is no circle time. [/quote]

Okay.... so basically you're against forcing the children to sit for circle time (good luck forcing 1 year olds to sit? Who does that?), which is not the same thing as being against circle time.[/quote]
